**Mech Wash update!!**

Text flashes on the screen for a moment before being replaced with the image of a striking, void dark, Jin woman. She stands on a sandy beach before an enormous swim tank. Beyond her, through the transsteel hull of a starship, Fontain station is visible in the distance. A beach towel is laid out on the sand and she's wearing an oversized white tshirt and heeled sandals. The tshirt is seemingly already somewhat damp and becoming translucent.

"Hi folks! Poet here with the latest update." she beams at the camera and claps her hands together. "I'm so pleased to announce that with the generous donations we've received so far, we've met our funding goals for the event." She turns and walks across the sand, holding one hand out to indicate the donor list, which appears as if floating in the air beside her.

"First up KEIKO! Keiko has been extremely generous, and has also agreed to be a judge for the POET prize." She beams into the camera, her smile seeming a bit at odds with the blank stare of her glass white eyes.

"Second, Clover Moonchild and JoyCo!" The name appears in the air, the letters doing a little dance as they fade in.

"Last but not least Nyx T'rath has donated, thank you Nyx!" Poet smiles and waves a hand and the donor list flashes a moment and vanishes. The camera circles about her for a moment, the operator seemingly wanting everyone to know what they are in for at the event as the camera focuses on her hips, backside and chest before her face fills the screen once again.

"With the donations we have received, I'm happy to announce that attendance at the event is now open to anyone, though I won't say no to additional marks. See you soon. Bring those dirty mechs and BEAST suits!" She waves at the camera as it pulls back and lies down on the beach towel in the sun.

The sandy beach is replaced with a promo clip of a neon sign reading: O-KEN TOSHAN'S MECH-U-SHINE. The sign seems a bit glitchy, snapping on and off with a pop and a buzzing sound. As it pans, a pair of adorable bots come into view spraying water and soap that splatters across the camera view. The image fades to black with the event date emblazoned across the screen. Yarsday in the 1st week of Extinction, 961 A.E..
